Next thing I did was buy this sewing machine! It's great. It's tiny and probably good for small children to learn to sew on, which is perfect for me because I know practically nothing and really want to learn. And it's very cute - made in china:)

Great, so I have finally started doing something here in Korea. I have discovered that Japanese and korean craft books are the way to go. They are amazing, and seem to have enough pictures so that you can figure the patterns out. So first thing I did was buy a craft book. Crafts here are called DIY. I think I will be buying quite a few of them while I am here. The reason I stumbled across the book is because I tried going for sewing classes but because the instructor is TERRIFIED of me - due to her lack of english, she said I can't go to the classes:) The classes happened to be close to a book shop, so I just browsed around and found a HUGE treasure!
